For people who have used U4U, when the beneficiary does the pre-travel attestations, do you have to upload vaccination records to prove that you had the vaccines?

 

When the war started, the US Embassy in Kyiv destroyed my wife's Ukrainian biometric passport with SB-1 visa attached, green card, vaccination records, etc.

 

I am trying to get her back home using U4U.

No you don’t need records of the vaccines. 

My wife is Ukrainian and came to the U.S through u4u. We want to apply for a green card but her city is under occupation and she doesn’t have her vaccine documents for Covid and such. She doesn’t want have have another Covid vaccine especially. Is there any way to go through the green card process without having to take it again?

Not sure how they would know? Anyways the scheme says you have to be Ukraine resident but does not define what that means.

 

There was somebody living in Turkey, not clear for how long, but not visiting who had no issue.

Ok I’m thinking they would check the passport stamps from their previous travel but I’ve heard a lot of people say a majority of beneficiaries weren’t in Ukraine before the war but obviously couldn’t or didn’t want to go back. Just wanted to see if anyone had an info on that. Thanks appreciate it. 

If the beneficiary wasn’t in Ukraine before the war but their hometown is occupied. Is it still possible to come under this program? We have the travel authorization and everything is done but I’m worried that they will see that they weren’t in Ukraine before and deny at the border crossing.

Hi @Ethan467, Did you receive a confirmation yet? I wonder what the current processing times are... I submitted I-134A on 02/01 and received the receipt notice instantly but wondering how long the review process is taking.

Yes finally. I received my confirmation/approval on the 3rd of Feb.  Same thing for me I received the receipt notice instantly, but it took about 18-19 days for them to confirm the next step. I called them beforehand asking if there was a problem with any of my information and they said that they haven't started the back-round check process yet. I'm assuming they are receiving more submissions and they might not have the staff to make it go as fast but eventually mine got confirmed and my beneficiary received their email 2 days after my confirmation. 

I submitted my I-134a on Jan.19 2023 and I received a receipt notice but still no confirmation. I read some people had there forms only take a few days to approve. Does anyone know if they are taking longer to process the I-134a?
